I am planning a road trip in September to Nova Scotia and PEI. I am particularly interested in primitive rug hooking and handcrafts. Where would you suggest I visit on PEI?

Hi Kristen,

Thank you for reaching out to Ask an Islander, we are so happy that you are planning a road trip to see us!

You will be a little early for this year's PEI Fibre Festival which will be held in October, but our fibre artists and producers have a wonderful website with a list of places that you might be interested in. They call it the PEI Fibre Trail with a map that has stops in every region.

Many of our local artisans also hold workshops which can be so much fun!

See you in September,

Valerie
